Race and Clan: Midland Hyur (Normal Human)
Main Class(es): Thaumaturge, Weaver and Alchemist. However, I am also leveling Mining, Botany, Goldsmithing, Leatherworking and Conjurer as well. I'm leveling things mostly evenly but focusing on THM, WVR and ALC. Much later game I hope to pick up cooking as well.
Time Zone: EST
Please list any Kindred member(s) that you know: None (Excluding one night linkshell stands)
Please list your MMO history: Star Wars Galaxies, FFXI, Dungeons and Dragons Online, WoW. All of my end game experience lies within WoW where I was an officer in a small raiding guild.
If you played FFXI, please list your character name, job(s) and server: Lothar, 53 RDM. It has been so long that I cannot even remember which server I played on.
Are you willing to regularly access the Kindred website for news and information? Absolutely.
Why do you wish to join Kindred?
I had been anxiously awaiting the release of FFXIV for about a year and am hoping to make this the MMO I stick with for a long time. With that I'm hoping to find a group of adventurers to level, quest and enjoy our time playing together. Playing as a part of a group is a much more engaging and fun experience and I'm hoping to find a strong community of players that aim to have those experiences.
I had browsed different guild postings on ZAM and noticed that Kindred had lots of activity (posting) on this website, which drew me to apply. I liked that there had been a core of players that had been together since 2005, which makes me think that the leadership will see to keeping the LS going for a long time.
I never made it to end game in FFXI and I'm hoping to do so with this one. I'm by no means rushing towards rank 50 (leveling like 8 different classes/professions at the same time is certainly slowing that down), but I would like to be able to take on the game's greatest challenges at a later point when they are available.
